Today’s Video: Miguel Bose @ "Peace Without Borders"

Tonight’s clip from the Paz Sin Fronteras ("Peace Without Borders") concert highlights Miguel Bose singing his signature hit “Amante Bandido”. The Spaniard was one of seven musicians who graced the stage at the Simon Bolívar bridge along the Venezuela/Colombia border.

From a personal standpoint, “Amante Bandido” was one of my favorite songs as a child. Thus, I got quite a kick listening to it on Sunday and it brought up some pretty good memories! (For comparison’s sake, here’s Bose lip-synching the song on Spanish TV in 1985 and looking like a lost member of Spandau Ballet).
